    Storing tires for the season

    Ever since I put my new Borbets on, my old Flower Power wheels are sitting underneath my porch, away from the sunlight, waiting for winter so I can put them back on as snow tires.

    Are there any tips to storing tires? Currently, the old tires have 30 PSI of air in them, should I deflate them a little? Any thoughts of storing my Borbets (they will be kept inside for the winter)?

    I hate to TTT, but I feel this is important to myself (I won't lie [img]tongue.gif[/img] ), and to other's in cold climates storing their wheels.

        I would not store them on the ground or cardboard on the ground(dampness can lead to dry rotting). Up on a plank or in a garage would be better.

        I always heard you should let some of the air out, but am not sure why, and I hate to pass along information if I don't know why...
